Fortunately, the major supercomputing conference SC12 in Salt Lake City will feature a number of Python related events. It is by far the most mentioned programming language in the conference schedule. See the list of events:
- Tutorial: Python in HPC given by Andy R. Terrel, Travis Oliphant, and Aron J. Ahmadia
- HPC Educator session: Python for Parallelism in Introductory Computer Science Education by Steven A. Bogaerts and Joshua V. Stough
- Birds of a Feather session: Python for High Performance and Scientific Computing by Andreas Schreiber, William R. Scullin, and Andy R. Terrel
- HPC Educator session: Computational Examples for Physics (and Other) Classes Featuring Python, Mathematica, an eTextBook and More by Rubin H. Landau and Richard G. Gass
- Workshop: Python for High Performance and Scientific Computing (PyHPC 2012) organized by Andreas Schreiber and William R. Scullin
The workshop PyHPC 2012 has the following talks this year:
- EasyBuild: Building Software With Ease by Kenneth Hoste, Jens Timmerman, Andy Georges and Stijn De Weirdt (Ghent University)
- Efficient Dynamic Derived Field Generation on Many-Core Architectures Using Python by Cyrus Harrison (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory), Paul Navratil (Texas Advanced Computing Center), Maysam Moussalem (University of Texas at Austin), Ming Jiang (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) and Hank Childs (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)
- A complete Python HPC framework: PyTrilinos, ODIN, and Seamless by Kurt Smith (Enthought, Inc.), William Spotz (Sandia National Laboratories) and Sean Ross-Ross (Enthought, Inc.)
- Mrs: MapReduce for Scientific Computing in Python by Andrew McNabb, Jeffrey Lund and Kevin Seppi (Brigham Young University)
